Bamugemereire commission sued for “nosing” into land dispute

A family has dragged the Catherine Bamugemereire led land probe to the civil division of the High Court in Kampala, seeking an order stopping the land commission or its agents from interfering in matters regarding the land on block 100, plot 195, Kyandondo.

The family has sued the land commission secretary, Dr Douglas Singiza and the Attorney General through Kiwanuka and Company Advocates.

The family members led by Richard Kiwanuka, Timothy Batalazze, Joshua Kyazze and Mansur claim that they inherited the land from their father but one of their aunties now claims ownership of the same land.

The members have since taken their relative to court but they now claim that the commission, under the influence of Singiza, wants to summon them over the same matter.

This, they say, would be sub judice since the case is already in court.
